Over the last two weeks, our family has been hit with a stomach bug, several trips to the ER and a long COVID quarantine. While our immune system has been a bit unreliable, we have been able to count on our Walmart+ membership to deliver fresh, high quality groceries with no hidden fees!
Read MoreYour request to find practically priced skincare has been found!
BEHOLD...three women, ages 40 and above, who recently tried L'Oréal Age Perfect Midnight Serum and Age Perfect Eye Cream, available at Walmart.
Read MoreThere’s no better companion than a brother and no better best friend than a sister. Days spent running through parks, chasing each other through streams and reaching “base” on rocking chairs are what childhood memories are made of...and those carefree memories are better in GAP Factory.
Read MoreFifteen years ago, I bought a pair of Walmart jean shorts before a Kenny Chesney concert and over a decade later, they are still my go-to cut-offs….when I can squeeze into them! This fall, I’ve added a few more classic looks from @WalmartFashion to my seasonal wardrobe. If you can appreciate plaid shirts with a bit of stretch and suede booties you can wear all day, you’ll want to see how I pulled together these $30 pieces.
Read MoreWe are the family that often runs from frightening outdoor Halloween displays. We are also the family whose children cover skeletons with blankets to make them less scary. In decorating my main living space for Halloween this year, I wanted to create a whimsical room that children run TOWARDS and not away from…so I added a bold pop of PINK and some sugary treats for a SWEET AND SPOOKY style sure to please!
Read MoreFond memories of watching movies with my childhood friends then became the inspiration piece for an 80’s, Goonies-themed tablescape! What started as an idea suggestion box on my Instagram, quickly turned into a nostalgic movie night with my family and an over-the-top Halloween table in my dining room.
Read MoreWith seven kids and two dogs, I know our limits with home decor, especially in high traffic areas. I can completely refresh a space with a $200 rug and $50 worth of accents. I recently warmed up and brightened our kitchen lounge with the My Texas House’ Santillo rug, a cream and griege rug that's easy to clean! (I know this because my dog tracked pizza on our new rug.) I angled a rust, cream and gold blanket over the edge of the couch and threw two $15 tufted trellis and tasseled pillows on top for a warm and cozy space!
Read MoreFollowing a transfer from Alabama to the University of Central Florida, my daughter, Grace, and I traveled to my alma matter to style her FIRST college apartment. Unlike the small spaces found in dorms and the pseudo-supervision that exists with a resident advisor, this shared apartment was a big transition…for both of us!
To make the most of her life’s new journey, I wanted her apartment to feel like home, not just a place where she studied. I designed her small space to feel stylish, safe and welcoming to new friends she would make in Florida.
Read MoreFOUR STATES, FIVE DAYS, SIX CHILDREN…. Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine..no real itinerary, no real plan. Just a family of eight, traveling around New England in an industrial passenger van, missing turns and doing circles. Walking under covered bridges, making pies from farm picked apples and taking daily, scenic road tips was a refreshing and renewing family experience. If you have never been to the Northeast in fall, plan on it. Don’t be too busy when you’re young to be too tired when you’re old. Book the flight. Rent the van. Follow in our footsteps.
Read MoreIn fifth grade, I waited in line to buy Gap overalls and a New Kids on the Block cassette tape before heading back to school. While boy bands may have changed a bit since then, GAP’s classic back to school looks are still just as popular for kids and teens!
With seven children, ranging from 4-19, our back to school list looks a bit different than the average family. One child is heading out of state for college while the youngest isn’t anywhere close to tying his shoes. Our teenage son is being forced to buy a new backpack because holes don’t seem to bother him while the 6th grader ONLY will wear a certain style of athletic shorts.
Whether we’re shopping for the classroom or the field, @Academy has everything we need in one place...a huge relief for this busy mom! Shop the latest North Face and Jansport backpacks, uniform staples and after school sports essentials all at Academy
Although our family recently moved to Nashville, my heart is happiest along Florida’s saltwater shores. I spent most of my life along the gulf coast and have vacationed in the Keys for as long as I can remember. Some of my most memorable outdoor moments as a child are the ones I am now reliving as an adult with my children. With so many islands and activity offerings, I thought it would be best to offer up a five day guide of what to do and where to stay in The Keys…and that guide is found here!
Read MoreIn a world of SMART phones, SMART TVs, SMART doorbells and SMART security, it’s no surprise that we now have the option of SMART bedding. It’s also no surprise that it was created by women...two former University of South Carolina basketball coaches. With far less instruction than a smart phone needed but with the same commitment to engineering, SHEEX offers Performance Cooling comforters, sheets and pillows that are designed to regulate your body temperature and release excess heat, allowing you to fall asleep faster and awake more rested.
Read MoreWhile some mothers shed a few tears when the kids head back to school, this mother of seven rejoices in a few hours of peace each day. With adidas’ BUY ONE GET ONE 50% OFF SALE, I have found another reason to rejoice because I saved HUNDREDS ordering back to school shoes for our entire family!
Read MoreOnce my MLB travel days were over with my husband, I transitioned into a new phase of life with my teenage son in support of his collegiate baseball goal. For the last several years, I have spent my summer traveling to all four corners of the country as my son chased after his baseball dreams.
Read MoreIn the midst of “out of stock” notifications and delivery delays of six months or more, I walked into Head Springs Depot looking for a couch and walked out with a truck full of furniture and new friends. Owner Seth Hall could not have been more gracious in helping our family find pieces that were available immediately or those that could be delivered within the week. Every coffee table and console in our home is from Head Springs but they are all unique enough to complement one another without looking the same. Our sofas, our kitchen table, our playroom furniture and everything in our kitchen lounge is from Head Springs.
